Look no further than cost of war

Published 4:29 pm Wednesday, June 2, 2010

Instead of blaming Congressmen Larsen and Inslee, along with the Obama administration, for our huge national debt, letter writers need to look further back — to when it started. We have been fighting two wars for several years and they are creating huge deficits.

In our history, we have never been able to fight a war without creating a deficit.

Instead of the blame game, how about a tax dedicated to paying for the wars?
